  • CABOT's LANDFALL by C
    _J_ CABOT'S LANDFALL By C. B. FERGUSSON HILE the profound importance and the far-reaching consequences of the discovery of N ortb America by John Cabot in 1497 have long been realized, and in W some measure recognized, his landfall in the New World still remains unmarked. T hat is actually so. But it in­ dicates neither a lack of interest in doing honour to a distin­ guished navigator for his outstanding services, nor a paucity of those who have urged the marking of his landfall or advanced claims with respect to its site. His name and his fame are per­ petuated by Cabot Strait, which separates Cape Breton I sland :..... r- from Newfoundland, by the Cabot Trail, with its unsurt>assed :., , scenic splendour, in Cape Breton Island, and by Cabot 'l'ower on Signal Hill, at St. John's in Newfoundland. It is very fitting that Cabot's a.ctivities should be so com­ memorated in both Cape Breton Island and Newfoundland, for his voyages had great significance for each. Yet these me­ morials, through their different locations, may also indicate the crux of the Cabotian controversy: there is still a lack of un­ animity with respect to the site of Cabot's landfall in 1497. There are some who would claim it for Cape Breton Island, as well as others who would attribute it to Newfoundland or Labra­ dor. And now that Newfoundland is a part of the Canadian nation, these rival claims have been revived, the evidence has been re-considered and re-sifted, and, if it is now possible, a decision should be reached on this matter.

  • The Age of Exploration (Also Called the Age of Discovery) Began in the 1400S and Continued Through the 1600S. It Was a Period Of
    Activity 1 of 3 for NTI May 18 - 22 - Introduction to Exploration of North America Go to: https://www.ducksters.com/history/renaissance/age_of_exploration_and_discovery.php ​ Click on the link above to read the article. There is a feature at the bottom that will allow you to have the text read to you, if you want. After you read the article, answer the questions below. You can highlight or bold your answers if completing electronically. I have copied the website ​ ​ ​ ​ text below if you need it. The Age of Exploration (also called the Age of Discovery) began in the 1400s and continued through the 1600s. It was a period of time when the European nations began exploring the world. They discovered new routes to India, much of the Far East, and the Americas. The Age of Exploration took place at the same time as the Renaissance. Why explore? Outfitting an expedition could be expensive and risky. Many ships never returned. So why did the Europeans want to explore? The simple answer is money. Although, some individual explorers wanted to gain fame or experience adventure, the main purpose of ​ ​ an expedition was to make money. How did expeditions make money? Expeditions made money primarily by discovering new trade routes for their nations. When the Ottoman Empire captured Constantinople in 1453, many existing trade routes ​ ​ to India and China were shut down. These trade routes were very valuable as they brought in expensive products such as spices and silk. New expeditions tried to discover oceangoing routes to India and the Far East. Some expeditions became rich by discovering gold and silver, such as the expeditions ​ ​ of the Spanish to the Americas.

  • Christopher Columbus Was Not the Only Explorer to Sail for Spain
    October 01, 2018 Spanish Explorers Christopher Columbus was not the only explorer to sail for Spain. Some of the most famous explorers are Juan Ponce de León, Ferdinand Magellan, Hernando Cortés, Francisco Vásquez de Coronado, and Hernando de Soto. Each one of these explorers played and important role in the colonizing and exploration of the Americas. October 01, 2018 Spanish Exploration One of the most influential countries during the age of exploration would be the Spanish. Spain with the help of Christopher Columbus was the first country to reach the Americas. Exploration to Spain was not to find treasures or claim land, those would be nice to have, but it's original goal was to spread their religion. Upon Columbus' return Spain turned it's focus to claiming land and finding riches. NOTES: *Spain was the 1st country to sail west to find Asia *Reason for Exploring: ~Spreading religion ~Claiming Land ~Finding Riches October 01, 2018 Christopher Columbus Christopher Columbus was the first Spanish explorer to reach the Americas, in 1492. He landed on an island and named it San Salvador and claimed the land for Spain. He believed that he had reached India so he called the native people Indians. Columbus finding a "new world" is extremely important his biggest impact might have been the excitement he stirred in other countries to explore. Columbus made 3 more voyages to the "new world" after his first. NOTES: *1st Voyage in 1492 *Claimed San Salvador for Spain *1st explorer to sail west Ferdinand Magellan Ferdinand Magellan was a Portuguese explorer who set sail in 1519.

The EDITH and LORNE PIERCE COLLECTION o/CANADIANA Queen's University at Kingston THE DISCOVERY OF NORTH AMERICA BY JOHN CABOT A FIRST CHAPTER IN THE HISTORT OF NORTH AMERICA. By FREDERIC KIDDER BOSTON : PRINTED FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION. 187 8. Read before the Maine Historical Society, at Bath, February 17, 1874. Reprinted from The New England Historical and Genealogical Register for October, 1878, by David Clapp & Son. DISCOVERY OF NORTH AMERICA. HPHE discovery of the New World by Columbus in 1492 may be -*- considered as the greatest event of modern times ; but to him and his associates, as well as to all the cosmographers of his time, it was only a discovery of the eastern coast of Asia and the adjacent islands. And so Columbus lived and died, with but faint idea of the immense value to the world of what his genius and enterprise had accomplished. The news of his great discovery soon spread throughout Europe, to the wonder of every nation ; and to those who had refused to listen to his plans, or had declined to aid him in carrying them out, it must have brought feelings of bitter regret. It is natural to suppose that a jealousy of Spain, which thus sud- denly had become possessed of immense domains, should be im- mediately felt, particularly by Portugal and by England, each of whom had thus lost the opportunity of becoming the leading nation of the world.

  • The Age of Exploration and Discovery
    The Age of Exploration and Discovery The First Americans The first people came into North America by foot, crossing a land bridge from Asia. They settled in all parts of North America and eventually spread into Central America and South America as well. These Native Americans developed societies that were successful and survived for thousands of years. During this time, they may occasionally have had contact with people from other lands, but they were basically living in isolation, unaffected by what was going on in the rest of the world. The first proven sea voyage to North America was made by Leif Ericsson, a Viking explorer from Norway. In the year 1000, Ericsson sailed to an island off the coast of Canada. Here, the Vikings established a settlement that lasted almost 500 years before dying out. During this time, Indians continued to live in North America, but were still unaware of the rest of the world, especially a part of the world called Europe. The Age of Exploration It is now the year 1300, the beginning of the 14th century. In Europe, a chain of events is starting which will eventually affect the Indians living in North America. For nearly 500 years following Leif Ericsson’s voyages, no other explorers are known to have come to the Americas. Very few people in Europe even knew about Ericsson’s voyage to North America. There was little communication between distant places, so people had very little knowledge about the rest of the world. During this time, most Europeans (people who lived in Europe) were not interested in dangerous sea voyages to faraway lands.
